WHEN I'M FRUSTRATED (like normal person does...)

...tell me, i thought, sometimes.... just sometimes, its better being judged by strangers or people or relatives or cousins than you judging them... for those who understands what I'm trying to say here, they will definitely agree with me.. sigh..

Of course, we all don't want being judged but in this life, its either you allow yourself as their prey or you will choose to live the life.

I learned that, with many experiences and encounters its better to continue doing good things, either people will acknowledge it or not.I had this experience of helping a very close person say for example as close as like a cousin and at the end of the day, what I'm getting is something unexpected. 

I became a victim of their ignorance, hatred and insecurities of their lives.Some people are really self centered and unfortunately, attention cravers and when you don't give your attention, you're the bad guy. Sorry, suckers! i've got more important errand to do. Knowing the truth (of what you people did...) is good enough and that only proves how self inflicted and so grand jealous you suckers of what we have. 

Im not a religious person but i know what is good and what is bad. I don't pull you down but instead i will LIFT you up. I'm pretty frustrated with what I've find out, but I'm glad i found out earlier.

Sometimes, I'm telling myself, i should avoid sharing to the entire world the way i felt but... hey, I'm a human too, i have feelings like you...  

BUT I always believe that karma will fix all things for some to learn. I will now close that door and for you, who always criticize me. Hurray, I'm giving the crown... but wait.. I have to take it back because it doesn't fit you at all.

IT'S HARMLESS!

"We still enjoy swimming." says the couple vacationer swimming this morning at the beach. I went for a walk this morning and I've seen a bit of the dead sea grass floating covering the crystal clear waters. 

If you've been on the water in Nah Trang yesterday you've seen clear water but this morning, you are looking at dead sea grass plaguing the area. The staff here told me that this is the time of the year when dead sea grass are floating on beaches. I was thinking that it's probably the effect of the typhoon which is happening nearby countries. I've been to few beaches but I don't remember seeing dead sea grass this much. The moment I opened my curtain, I saw them floating near the shore, “fisherman are not affected as its not really covering a lot of the sea.” say's the hotel staff.

The fresh water kills the sea grass -- meaning some sea life must go elsewhere. "It's essential for their survival. Whether it be for their reproduction or just as a refuge for their habitat, without those sea grasses they can no longer reproduce or use those areas.” 

 

It was indeed a cleaning up time on for the beaches. I was looking at them collecting the brown sea grass and putting them on the boats to dispose. The cleaning took at least few days. For now, the dead sea grass come and go but at least it's not a lot like the other weeks. I've seen that tourist are enjoying their time because they have access to the sea. 

SECOND DAY - Akureyri to Egilsstaðir

"Certainly, travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living." - Mary Ritter Beard

I really agree with people saying that.. “The problem with driving around Iceland is that you’re basically confronted by a new soul-enriching, breath-taking, life-affirming natural sight every five goddamn minutes. It’s totally exhausting.”

Our journey out of Akureyri was looking pretty good. Blue skies plus sun was all shining! We were told that some areas are grim with very low cloud but weather improved as we go along and yes! We enjoyed all these wonderful views down the road. As were about to leave Akureyri. We stopped at the view point overlooking the city. Beautiful place. What I love about the hotel we stayed was that, our room was facing the mountain glaciers. Enjoyed so much.

Our destination today was Egilsstaðir in the Eastfjords. We were told that its another wonderful drive and outpost town.

HIGHLIGHTS TODAY includes: Goðafoss waterfalls, which was really good to see. Lovely waterfalls. It was just a perfect timing to stop over and enjoyed the sounds of the waterfall plus the cool breeze. We didn’t stay long because its gonna be another long journey for Egilsstaðir.

Along the way, we enjoyed the mountain glaciers. It was really really amazing! Like what I said last time, I have to remind my husband to focus on his wheels. I can’t blame him as well if he can’t resist looking at the left and right view of the road. just BEAUTIFUL and AMAZING views!

After two hours of driving, we stopped at Namaskard. Here, we also enjoyed the view but I didn’t enjoy the smell of the sulphur. The odor coming from the underground was really bad. It wasn’t pleasing at all but the view was one awesome landscape. Here, we’ve seen the sulphur steaming plus the red soil and bubbling mud of Namaskard.

The day is really wonderful. Another hour passed and here we arrived at the Hverfall, a gigantic tephra crater. According to Wikipedia, this is the so-called Tuff Ring, created 2,500 years ago. I kilometer in diameter and in the concave is 140 metres deep. Yes! We did climbed the mountain. The arrived on top, you’ll see the amazing view down there. We stayed a bit but didn’t walk around the crater because the wind was pretty strong and yeah, freezing cold.

Next, we are now heading to the hotel for our overnight stay at the Icelandair Hotel Herad. Cozy and lovely hotel. I must say that, the whole day driving was totally awesome.

That’s it for today and soon, I will share the photos from the 3rd to the 5th day of our trip to Iceland.  Enjoy the photos as much as I enjoyed taking them.
